New simulations suggest Jupiter holds far more water than once thought, reshaping ideas about how the largest planet formed.

Jupiter’s swirling storms have concealed its true makeup for centuries, but a new model is finally peeling back the clouds. Researchers found the planet likely holds significantly more oxygen than the ...

For generations, Jupiter has been shorthand for a straightforward idea: the biggest planet in the Solar System, a gas giant ...

Towering clouds ripple across Jupiter's surface in dramatic patterns. Like Earth's clouds, they contain water, but on Jupiter they are far denser and ...

Thick, swirling clouds cover Jupiter from pole to pole. They hold water like Earth’s clouds, but at far greater density.

An atmospheric study reveals unexpected findings about our largest neighboring planet and the structure of its deep atmosphere.

"What makes the event even more extraordinary is that it did not involve a single volcano, but multiple active sources." ...

NASA's James Webb Telescope has captured auroras on Jupiter that have hundreds of times more energy than those here on Earth. Jupiter's auroras are like the "Northern Lights, but way bigger!" NASA ...

Observations of Jupiter show that ammonia is unevenly distributed in the upper atmosphere, against expectations of uniform mixing. Scientists found evidence for a complicated but apparently real ...

Spectacular clouds swirl across the surface of Jupiter. These clouds contain water, just like Earth's, but are much denser on the gas giant—so thick that no spacecraft has been able to measure exactly ...

It would appear that a really big storm on Jupiter can leave a noticeable mark in the planet's atmosphere. A recent study tapped into data collected by the Jupiter-orbiting spacecraft Juno and the ...
